Abadir Associates created this infographic on how they can treat your rosacea, to help patients with rosacea understand their treatment options. Rosacea is a chronic skin condition that primarily affects the face. It causes redness and inflammation, and can produce small, red bumps on the forehead, chin, cheeks, and/or nose.

It is normal for patients with rosacea to notice a predisposition to blushing, experience burning or stinging sensations of the skin, and have visible broken blood vessels or facial veins.

Red, painful, and itchy, rosacea can be a daily struggle for those that suffer from this common skin condition. Rosacea can be tricky to treat, but at Abadir Associates we have helped many patients improve the appearance of their skin and increase their comfort. Come see us and finally get your rosacea under control. Imagine a life without the pain and embarrassment of rosacea.

What Is Rosacea?

Rosacea is a chronic skin condition that primarily affects the face. It causes redness and inflammation. Many patients with rosacea develop visible blood vessels and small red bumps on the cheeks, chin, nose, and/or forehead. This condition can be very uncomfortable and embarrassing. If left untreated, your rosacea symptoms will get worse.

What Are My Treatment Options for Rosacea?

There is no cure for rosacea, but with the right combination of treatments we can often dramatically reduce your symptoms. Our goal is to completely control and eliminate your symptoms. Our experience in treating the condition has taught us that each patient responds to rosacea treatment differently. We’ll work with you to find the right treatment combination to clear your skin and ease discomfort.

Topical Creams- Topical creams can be applied to the skin to ease redness, calm inflammation, and camouflage rosacea symptoms.

Antibiotics– We may use topical and/or oral antibiotics for their anti-inflammatory properties.

Antihistamines– If your rosacea is accompanied by itching, burning, or irritation, antihistamines may help.

IPL– IPL, or intense pulsed light treatments, can treat visible facial veins and broken capillaries. This is an excellent complement to your treatment protocol and can help your skin to look younger, healthier, and more rejuvenated.

Facials– Our skincare experts can perform a rosacea facial to calm and soothe the skin, while easing swelling and moderating facial redness. Facials are non-invasive, but highly effective.
